The sum of three numbers is 66 . The second number is twice the first minus 3. The third number is the sum of the first and second numbers. Find the numbers.

Answer 1

Answer:

X=23

Y=10

Z=33

Explain

Let, first number=X

Second number =Y

And third number =Z

Given,

X+Y+Z=66, 2Y=X-3, Z=X+Y

2Z=66, Z=33, X+Y=33, X=33-Y

2Y=33-Y-3, 3Y=30, Y=10 & X=23
